Summary
 

Very interesting game and fun too…

Jink save: I think I made... only about three today..It feels fine to use and there were times today were I was thankful for having it..

WIND RIDER: They still need more testing, but I find them useful.

HORNETS: Hornets: 4 for 200 seems good. They hit hard, but are very very fragile if targeted, which is as it should be…Although my opponent today did throw some fire power at them today…

 
Regards
Greg
